44 new cooperation projects selected

Interreg CENTRAL EUROPE will fund 44 new cooperation projects following the third call for proposals. Around 77 million Euro from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) will support activities of transnational project partnerships in the coming years.

Together with 85 projects already funded following the first two calls, the programme will soon fund a total of 129 projects. This figure shows that the programme is fully on track for achieving important thematic performance milestones.
